Wealth Of The Nations

Rise up in splendor, Jerusalem! Your light has come,
the glory of the Lord shines upon you.
See, darkness covers the earth,
and thick clouds cover the peoples;
but upon you the LORD shines,
and over you appears his glory.
Nations shall walk by your light,
and kings by your shining radiance.
Raise your eyes and look about;
they all gather and come to you:
your sons come from afar,
and your daughters in the arms of their nurses.

Then you shall be radiant at what you see,
your heart shall throb and overflow,
for the riches of the sea shall be emptied out before you,
the wealth of nations shall be brought to you.
Caravans of camels shall fill you,
dromedaries from Midian and Ephah;
all from Sheba shall come
bearing gold and frankincense,
and proclaiming the praises of the LORD.
Isaiah 60: 1-6

They were overjoyed at seeing the star,
and on entering the house
they saw the child with Mary his mother.
They prostrated themselves and did him homage.
Then they opened their treasures
and offered him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
And having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod,
they departed for their country by another way.
Matt 2: 10-12

My view:

On this feast of Epiphany, let us consider the epiphany that is ongoing in the financial markets and monetary system.

A light has gone on above the heads of many.

The enlightenment is this - we can not continue to spend what we have not earned - be it on wars or welfare - no matter what politicians and the media may tell us.

This is a reality moment.

A moment of truth.

It involves the masses, that are snapped back into reality from fantasy by a hard truth.

The pathological state promises things it can't possibly deliver.

It imposes capital controls and begins bank holidays to save the status quo banking system.

But the truth of the matter is elegantly simple.

You can't spend what you have not earned.

You can't borrower when you are a deadbeat, spendthrift - be it individual or nation.

You can debauch your currency in an attempt to keep the parasitic bankers at the helm, steering the ship called the economy toward the rocks of despair.

Or you can embrace the truth of gold and its creator.

Because wise men still seek Him.
